This month, Books, Chai & More, the Raah Book Club, will be discussing the book My Name Is Red by Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk.

The Sultan commissions that a great book be penned, honouring his life and empire. It is to be illustrated by the best artists of the day, and be styled in the European fashion. This is to be done in utmost secrecy: not even the group of artists are allowed to know whom they are working for. However, one of the miniaturists soon gets murdered, and the cause as well as the perpetrator of the crime remains unknown.

The book discussion will be led by Sameer Joshi, an artist & a poet. He is a Professor of English with the University of Maryland, US.
